The mail.app does not fetch new messages, no matter how I set the “Check for new messages” in the application preferences. The only way to get messages is by quitting and restarting the app. I have three mail account (Gmail, iCloud, Exchange) and the problem is the same for all of them. Other mail apps, like Airmail work fine, but I prefer to use the Apple Mail. What's the solution? thanks.
